We calculated and compared electricity rates for each power company!

We calculated and compared electricity bills for each power company!
I wrote in my previous blog that electricity prices and the structure of the power industry have changed dramatically since 3/11.
I told them. People in the Tokyo Electric Power Company service area often say, "Our electricity bill is so high!!"
That's a lot, but is it really true?
I wondered if there was a website that actually compared the electricity rates of each company.
I tried searching for it.
That's where I found the site below.
http://電気料金.biz/7.html
It is very easy to understand, but the data is old, from 2008.
I thought that this was quite far from the current situation. However, outside of this site
I couldn't find a better site than this, so I spent a little bit of time
I tried making it myself.
In terms of construction, as with the above site, if you use 300 kWh per month (average electricity bill is about XNUMX yen/month)
So first I did some calculations.

First, the areas painted red are where prices have increased since March 11th.
Looking at this, we can see that Chubu Electric Power and Okinawa Electric Power have not raised their prices.
By the way, to calculate the actual electricity bill, you need to add or subtract the fuel adjustment amount below ⑦.
Since this amount fluctuates and is not large, and is roughly the same for each company, it has been ignored in this calculation.
Okinawa Electric Power was originally the only power company in Japan that did not have a nuclear power plant, so the price has not increased.
I can understand that. However, the reason why Chubu Electric Power has not raised its prices is because of its financial strength or
It is unclear whether this was due to slow management decisions or the low ratio of nuclear power plants.
.
Looking at the results, we can see that Hokkaido Electric Power Company has the highest electricity bill by far.
On the other hand, we can see that Hokuriku Electric Power is the cheapest. The difference between the two is nearly 1,500 yen per month.
Yes. That amounts to a difference of about 18,000 yen per year.
Tokyo Electric Power Company, which everyone assumes has high electricity bills, is actually quite high, coming in second place.
These two companies' prices are higher than those of Okinawa Electric Power, which does not have a single nuclear power plant.
It's cheap so it may be strange to compare it to other places, but it is still more expensive than Okinawa.
I think it's too expensive.
As for Kansai Electric Power, the price has been in the middle range, even though the ratio of nuclear power generation has been extremely high from the beginning.
I think that the cheapest electricity provider, Hokuriku Electric Power, is trying very hard to provide electricity.
I realized that the unit price of electricity was really low both before and after the price increase.
The next cheapest company, Chubu Electric Power, has not raised its prices.
The runner-up, Kyushu Electric Power, has also raised its prices but is still able to maintain relatively low prices, which is a positive thing.

I also learned something else from making this. Looking at the fee structure, the electric power companies
I guess there is a bit of a faction or alliance between them.
First of all, Tokyo Electric Power Company and Chubu Electric Power Company have exactly the same basic rates. These two companies have a close relationship.
In addition to these two companies, Tohoku Electric Power, Hokuriku Electric Power, Hokkaido Electric Power, and Kyushu Electric Power also have basic charges.
Since the systems are the same and the name, "Time-of-Use Lighting B," is the same, it can be imagined that there is strong cooperation between the two services.
Next, Kansai Electric Power, Chugoku Electric Power, and Shikoku Electric Power also have the same basic fee structure.
The names of these electric power companies will also change to something like "Time-of-Use Lighting A."
Okinawa Electric Power is the only one that is different because it does not have a nuclear power plant, but even though it is called "metered electricity B"
The basic fee system is similar to that of Kansai Electric Power Company, so they are sticking to their own unique approach in this area as well.
I feel it.
However, when you look at it this way, Hokkaido Electric Power not only has high unit prices, but also has another extremely high price.
We can see that there are factors that lead to this. All electric power companies are gradually increasing their unit prices.
The third tier price starts at 300 kWh, whereas other companies' prices are all 280 kWh or more.
The unit price is the highest in Hokkaido, a cold region with high energy consumption, and
I feel it's a shame that the starting line for the third stage is also set so low.
Are people in Hokkaido aware of this fact?
By the way, there aren't many families who can live on 300 kWh throughout the year.
So I calculated it for 400kWh and the table below shows it.

The middle rankings will change slightly, but the hierarchical relationships will not change much.
What changes, on the other hand, is the price difference. The difference between 1st and 10th place widens to about 2,100 yen.
This works out to about 25,000 yen per year.
This blog is read by people all over the country, but what do you think when you see the electricity bills in your area?
We would appreciate your feedback.
